Pegasus R Iss.07 – 08/13
CALIBRATION USING THE TEMPERATURE INDICATED ON THE
CONTROLLER
1.
Remove the Pegasus 'R' from its case and visually inspect it for any damage it may have sustained since it was
last used. Insert the black body source assembly (see fig 970-20-02) into the furnace tube with the ceramic
insulators.
2.
Connect the Pegasus 'R' to a suitable power supply and set the controller to the required temperature (see
the controller's manual for details and Fig 1).
3.
Wait for the temperature to stabilise.
4.
When the temperature indicated by the controller and the output of the thermometer are both stable (see
specification for typical values) record three sets of readings over a period of about six minutes. Check that
these readings are consistent and then calculate their average values.
5.
The Pegasus 'R' has itself been calibrated, correct the average values accordingly.
6.
Reset the controller and/or repeat the calibration for another thermometer.
7.
When the calibration is complete, reset the controller to 0 C and wait until the unit has cooled to below
400 C before moving the Pegasus to a new location. The Pegasus must be cooled to about 100 C before it
can be put back into its carrying case.
